Bigg Boss Season 18 has officially begun with 18 contestants in the house. While Vivian Dsena, Shilpa Shirodkar, Alice Kaushik, Avinash Mishra and Shehzada Dhami, among others, were among the early entrants, actress Eisha Singh was one of the last contestants to come on board for the show. Eisha, who is also Vivian’s co-star from Sirf Tum, was last seen on the Colors TV show Bekaaboo, which also starred Shalin Bhanot and Abhishek Kumar. In an exclusive interview with Indianexpress.com, Eisha shared that she discussed her participation with both Shalin and Abhishek. Eisha also shared how the makers strongly insisted she participate this season.
 

Talking about why she chose to be a contestant on Bigg Boss 18, Eisha Singh said, “I am very loyal to this channel and they were insisting on me. Earlier, when I was approached, I was busy with something and could not do it. This time, the makers wanted me, so I decided to dive in. The makers didn’t give me an option to say no this time.”

Eisha, who is a fun-loving girl, says she loves to live in the present and is going on Bigg Boss 18 only to have fun. “Everybody goes on the show to win, but I am not very adamant about winning. I have to take one step at a time. Also, I believe in my audience,” she added.

When asked if she discussed her participation on Bigg Boss 18 with her Bekaaboo co-stars Shalin Bhanot and Abhishek Kumar, who have participated in the previous seasons, Eisha said, “Shalin and Abhishek are amongst the few people who know about me going on Bigg Boss 18. Shalin is my best friend in the industry. He told me to have fun and be myself on the show.”

While Eisha Singh says food is her weakness, one habit in people that angers her is dishonesty. “I don’t like people lacking basic manners, and dishonesty. I appreciate it when people are real on my face, I am also like that. I have dealt with sharks who have pretended to be friends, and it’s not nice to have that,” Eisha said before signing off.
